Srila Prabhupada writes, "It may be remembered that the Sudharma assembly house was taken away from the heavenly planet and was reestablished in the city of Dvaraka. The specific significance of the assembly house was that anyone who entered it would be free from the six kinds of material pangs, namely hunger, thirst, lamentation, illusion, old age and death. These are the whips of material existence, and as long as one remained in that assembly house of Sudharma, he would not be affected by these six material whips."

In this regard, Sridhara Svami and Visvanatha Cakravarti explain that when Lord Krishna would exit separately from each of His many palaces, each individual form would be visible to the persons present on those particular palace grounds and to the neighboring residents, but not to others. Then, at the gateway path of the Sudharma assembly hall, all the forms of the Lord would merge into a single form, and thus He would enter the hall.
